More Than Self-Loathing
Assuming things are as reported, it extended to all gun owners, as this plays right into the hands of the grabbers. [More]
You have to wonder if there was a sick motivation to do that. I don't see how there couldn't be.

Everytown, U.S.A.
We were informed that a customer who entered the library building today was exposed to COVID-19. In the best interest of our community, we will be shutting down the facility effective immediately for a deep cleaning. [More]If every place everywhere is going to do this every time, we might as well just give up everything.

Virtue Self-Flagellating
Super-rich call for higher taxes on wealthy to pay for Covid-19 recovery [More]They have so much they'll never miss it -- assuming their armies of accountants haven't already got all kinds of loopholes figured out. Besides, there's always the option of increasing profits by passing costs on to consumers or putting the squeeze on suppliers.
As if any of this will stop the monster of their making once it's their turn in the tumbrels...

I Might Go Along with 'Less Immediately Toxic'
Democrat Sen. challenger Mark Kelly is campaigning on background checks and gun seizures as he tries to unseat pro-Second Amendment Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ). [More]I'd hardly go that far.
Hyperbole distracts from being fully informed. Don't make me call in Fletcher.

We're the Only Ones Jocular Enough
'All Lives Splatter' post has Mike Brown in hot water after Summer Taylor's death in Seattle [More]As for Summer Taylor's father demanding that everyone liking or sharing a meme lose their jobs, no wonder she turned out like she did.
A with gun-grab relatives, I reserve my sympathy for people who don't lay claim to my rights.

Another Victim of 'Gun Violence'
Armed robber killed by man with gun [More]It doesn't matter to the grabbers, because the name gets added to the list regardless.
Y'know, they're right-- things do look "disproportionate."
Could something other than "lax gun laws" and "systematic racism" be factors, and wouldn't someone who truly cares about making a difference want to know?

NRAWOL
“Where’s the NRA?” Michelle Malkin Fights For Innocent Man’s Freedom After Soros D.A.’s Tomfoolery [More]Sorry -- the Lairds of Fairfax watch the battle from atop the hill while they make deals with Longshanks, and besides, they need their money for something else.
The Raging Spirit that Dwells Within
...they occasionally went too far, did too much, destroyed what did not have to be destroyed and were repentant to their God and sought to restrain their bloody natures. Again, they went too far, allowed too much and became too peaceful. [More]Think those who continue to push will listen and back off...?
The Police Protection Paradoxes
In practice, most of the police protection in the last two or three months has been for the rioters, looters and arsonists. The police are there to protect the criminals from the otherwise peaceable men and women, not the peaceable from the criminals. [More]The other paradox is that this is happening in areas with high concentrations of police. Get fanned-out destroyers to a place where the limited official force will soon be overwhelmed and triaged, and that means armed citizens will realize it's all up to them and their neighbors, and that the manpower, armament, and terrain advantages are theirs.

Enough IS Enough
“I am baffled why the fair board won’t just follow the lead of the Ohio State Fair and ban the sale of the flag,” Lorain County Commissioner Matt Lundy said. [More]I'm baffled why anyone who took an oath to the Constitution would demand government be the sole arbiter of acceptable First Amendment expression. Such persons must be either idiots or liars. Or both.
I'm surprised I haven't heard a challenge to the State Fair ban -- I guess no vendor was selling them and no one wants to volunteer to be the "bad guy" by suing.
As for the"treason" charge by that ridiculous, racist, Democrat moron Juanita Brent (but I repeat myself a few times), I wasn't aware the Confederacy was trying to take over and rule-- they just wanted to leave, which ought to be the right of a state that voluntarily joined a Union that would not exist had they not been co-creators. Does anyone think they would have ratified it had they known divorce was forbidden under force of arms?
Funny, how none of these hive insects said Word One about the CHAZ/CHOP "secession."
Be Careful What You Wish For
Petition to 'Declare George Soros a Terrorist & Seize All His Assets' Goes Viral - White House petition demanding action against liberal billionaire passes 215k signatures [More]Talk about making a Democrat drool! Anybody see due process and a trial mentioned, or does the executive branch just have the Constitutionally delegated power to "declare" this against any and all individuals?
I guess most can't be bothered with petitions where legitimate power to act does exist...

Taxpaying Gun Owners Being Forced to Fund Brady Subversion
The government has no money that does not come from the private sector. Forcing gun owners through taxation to in any way help finance groups working to take away their rights is reminiscent of nothing so much as an added insult to injury practiced by totalitarian regimes, the “bullet fee.” [More]So if the Bradys or the Giffords came up and asked you for a loan to help finance their attacks on your rights, what would you tell them -- if you had a choice?
